The Bloody Pacecar
I would love to know what everyone out there thought of the farce that was the last race on the weekend. I was there and it was a nice gift to Hrt. I say it because if they had picked up bright when they where meant to then trat and weel would have been at the back of the pack and not 2nd and 3rd on the road. This totaly changed the outcome of the last race because trat was a road block for several laps.
what do you guys and girls think should be done to change this in the future??????? |

The timing system had been stuffed by the Safety Car being on the time line.

Personally I'd get rid of the Safety Car. And Elephino's right. The Safety Car being parked just about on the timing line had confused the Dorians.

Well i have just watched the race. As in recorded tens coverage. I know see that the only people that saw the pacecar stuff up where those that where at the event.
It took the pacecar about 4 to 6 laps to pick up Brighty after they had waved him through. That is how Tratt and Weel got between the leaders. It was a pure joke. |
